Chemical Structure

(3-Chloropyridin-2-yl)methanamine dihydrochloride CAS 342816-31-3 chemical structure

Description

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

(3-Chloropyridin-2-yl)methanamine dihydrochloride (CAS 342816-31-3) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C6H7ClN2HCl and a molecular weight of 179.04 g/mol.

The molecular framework of (3-Chloropyridin-2-yl)methanamine dihydrochloride (C6H7ClN2HCl) is characterized by a nitrile group, chlorine substitution. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the protonation state of its nitrogen-containing groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
